[Hey, give the stones a chance! Maybe if you believe they'll help, then they will. Mind over matter!
But a reaction like that...he doesn't even realize that he raises a hand to his chest. Did his heart just skip a beat? He's pretty sure it did. Maybe even a couple. He meant for this gift to really mean something, to not only be equal to what he was given before but tell the were exactly how he feels, but was prepared for it to mostly be brushed off too. Not in a bad way, mind you! It's not like he was waiting for Fuyuhiko to tell him it was stupid or something, just...he wasn't sure if it would have as much of a weight as he was trying to give it.
It clearly did though. And then for him to be so straightforward with his thanks - he's going to cherish it - catches him even more off guard. Gundam's never had a gift accepted from him with so much feeling before. Granted, he also hasn't given many gifts out, but still.
He nods at first, unsure of what to say in reply. And a little unsure if he can keep his voice steady or not. His chest feels like it's full of butterflies or birds or something, with how relieved and grateful he is.]
You're welcome.
[In the end, he just goes with the simplest answer. There are so many other things he wants to say, but he can't really find the words to express them.
You're very important to him, Fuyuhiko. He hopes that message, too, was communicated clearly with this gift. Because it just doesn't seem like there are any words that could adequately describe that.]
